I suggest looking at www.permanent.com  That group of gentlement have
probally compiled the world's largest resource on such projects.

Resourcing of asteroids is a 'neat' way of getting around the material
problems of transport from Earth to LEO and beyond. It also starts us down a
very difficult path. One in which, we must trust the commerce guilds with
the lives of our families.

But the fact that there would be space commerce most certainly implies the
realization of so many of our dreams: private citizens in space doing things
they want to do, living their lives to be pioneers. I think that asteroid
missions should take precedent over a Mars mission because of the
incremental nature of the flight and the perhaps less demanding criteria.
